Catholic Health Australia (CHA) Medical Research Symposium 5 May 2016

Catholic Heath Australia (CHA) has a long history of collaboration with Monash University via their hospital members, which include Cabrini, St Vincent’s, Mercy St John of God, Mater and Calvary. They represent Australia’s largest non-government grouping of hospitals, aged and community care services, providing approximately 10% of health services in Australia.

CHA is hosting their first Medical Research Symposium on 5 May 2016 in Melbourne, to showcase research achievements of CHA researchers, foster collaboration and discuss challenges facing Australian scientists in their goal to improve health outcomes. It may be of interest to Monash researchers as a good way to promote collaboration between the institutes. Sir Gustav Nossal, one of Australia’s most celebrated immunologists, is the Keynote speaker. He will be joined by Professor Chris Baggoley, the Chief Medical Officer from the Department of Health, and outstanding researchers and rising stars from within CHA's membership.  

Early bird registration is closing soon (14 March). A copy of the registration brochure/program is attached. Abstracts for posters are open to all delegates, with poster prizes.


If there is a group of researchers, students or delegates that are interested in attending please advise Dr Ellen Marks (ellenm@cha.org.au) and CHA can organise a group discount.
